IT'S WORTH NOTING...
	· The imagery doesn't adequately show the dramatic increase in water depth on the outer shelf. Compare the water depth of the platforms furthest away from shore to those only 50 miles or so closer to shore. With the increase in depth comes a very large increase in drilling costs.
